Introduction: The effect of social drivers health (SDOH) on readmissions and costs after total hip arthroplasty (THA) knee (TKA) is poorly understood. Policies such as the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program have targeted overall readmission reduction, using value-based strategies to improve healthcare quality. However, implications SDOH these outcomes are not yet We hypothesized that area deprivation index (ADI) a surrogate for would markedly influence rates in 90-day postprocedural...
